Knowing When You are doing Innovative Education

Dr Stephen Dann from the ANU College of Business and Economics at ANU Australian National University is speaking at the ANU Educational Research Conference on how to innovate productively in education. He suggested that just trying things was not innovation, as you need to check who might have done it before so you can learn from their experience and document what it is you are doing so others can learn from that. He also pointed out how techniques from the teachers discipline can be sued in teaching (in his case marketing).
